| I have always been confused with MicroEmacs. How does this version
differ from the one that came with my V1.3 Enhancer?
|
2388.2 | any better than micro-gnu emacs? | ALAZIF::WHERRY | Celebrate Gotham's Tricentennial | Thu Mar 23 1989 15:18 | 5 |

2388.3 | I'm not familiar with the other variations | PRNSYS::LOMICKAJ | Jeff Lomicka | Mon Mar 27 1989 12:02 | 10 |
| My suggest to both of you is to read
PRNSYS::RELEASED_TOOLS:[MICROEMACS]EMACS.TXT, and perhaps download
MEAMIGA. try it, and decide for yourself if this is a step up or
down from whatever you are running now. In either case, I'd like to
know what you decide.
I have heard that micro-gnu is an earlier version of Microemacs modified
to have more GNU-like bindings. If this is true, the microemacs will
gain you a reasonable extension language for making further
customizations of your own.

2388.4 | I can't run the Amiga version of MicroEmacs | CSOA1::LEN | David M. Len | Mon Jul 17 1989 23:15 | 12 |
| I have downloaded MEAMIGA from PRNSYS:: and I am unable to run it.
My "file" utility indicates that it is an executable object, but
when I try to run it, I get an error indicating that it is not an
executable object.
Have any of you been successful at running this version?
BTW: I have a 2000 running ARP 1.3 with 1.3 AmigaDOS and 1.3 ROMS,
3MB, 2 floppies, and a ST296N disk with Microbotics Hardframe
controller.

2388.5 | I should of read some documentation first | CSOA1::LEN | David M. Len | Tue Jul 18 1989 00:51 | 9 |
| I guess I should of read the documentation first. Note 80 in the
MicroEmacs note file stated that xmodem could not be used on the
execuable file, but VMS arc could. So I arc'd the file, then used
xmodem to download it, and finally un-arc'd the file on the Amiga.
And it ran fine.
It does not seem to support any menu bar, and the key binding are
different (^Z is top of buffer, and ^C seems to insert a space).
But, I plan on researching further.
